Mrs. Wages Salsa Review (& Giveaway Ends 5/31)

ABOUT:

Make Fresh Tasty Homemade Salsa in Minutes

Home gardeners and fresh ingredient aficionados can make home made salsas and guacamoles in a flash, thanks to a new concept called Mrs. Wages®, from Precision Foods.  The new line of all natural gourmet make-your-own salsas and guacamole mixes is targeted at consumers who want to use fresh ingredients, but don’t have the time to blend the many spices and herbs that go into great salsas and guacamoles.  The Mrs. Wages line includes a variety of packaged mixes, including five tomato salsa recipes, a fruit salsa and a guacamole package.

“Mrs. Wages is the national leader in the home canning industry, and now we’re able to serve the busy consumer who wants to eat and entertain with fresh ingredients, but doesn’t have extra time to assemble multiple ingredients,”   says Timothy McCreery, vice president of sales and marketing at Precision Foods.  “You just chop your tomatoes, add a packet of salsa mix, and you are on your way.  With renewed interest in shopping locally and home gardening, Mrs. Wages is an ideal way to use fresh produce to create homemade salsas and guacamole instantly and easily.”

Best of all —  A packet of Mrs. Wages sells  for approximately $1.25.   You can buy them online at http://store.mrswagesstore.com/instantsalsas.html “For a budget conscious consumer, you can serve homemade gourmet guacamole and salsa at your next party for just a few dollars,” say McCreery.  “And that’s something to cheer about!”

MY THOUGHTS:

I was sent three yummy Mrs. Wages packets to try out:  Fruit & Cilantro Salsa, Classic Salsa, and Salsa Verde.  All three are All Natural and come in 8 oz. dry seasoning packets.  All you have to do is add the tomatoes, avocados, or fruit!  Now my husband and I are salsa freaks, but we don’t also have fresh cilantro, onions, or whatever else we may want to add in.  Now with the Classic Salsa for example, we just had to add tomatoes, which we used fresh but you can also use canned tomatoes as the directions note.  The salsa packet was the perfect amount for the two of us for two nights of salsa snacking.  Now if I was going to make it for a party I would probably use 2-3 packets, but one packet was just fine for the two of us and it was especially nice not to have to cut up onions!

Mrs. Wages would be awesome too for last minute snack preparing or if you want one kind and maybe your spouse wants another.  I was also impressed with how yummy it tasted for being a dry packet that you add in.  Once the tomato juices absorbed the seasonings, it says to wait 10 minutes before eating, the salsa was so yummy!  I am definitely hooked on keeping a few packets around for times when I want fresh salsa but don’t have everything nor do I have time or want to cut up everything!  I also can’t wait to prepare all the other varieties I received!
